Before You Begin
To create a podcast episode, you’ll first need:
An uploaded sermon video or audio file in a Project
Processing to complete after upload
Once your sermon is ready, you can generate a podcast episode directly from the Project page.
Start a Podcast Episode
Open your Project in Content Studio.
In the Audio Content section, select Podcast Episode.
Content Studio will begin preparing the sermon audio for podcast editing.
Depending on the size of your upload, this may take a few minutes.
Choose How You Want to Start
After selecting Podcast Episode, you’ll see two options:
Start from Scratch
Create a blank podcast episode using your sermon audio as the main content.
This is best if you want full control over:
Intro audio
Outro audio
Background music
Start and end trimming
Use a Template
Start with a pre-configured podcast structure from your library of saved templates.
Templates can help streamline recurring podcast formats by automatically applying saved layouts or audio elements.

Edit Your Podcast Episode
Once processing is complete, the Podcast Timeline editor will open.
Your sermon audio will appear in the Primary Content section automatically.
From here, you can:
Add Intro or Outro Audio
Use the Add Speaking Audio button in the Intro or Outro sections to upload additional audio segments.
Examples include:
Podcast intros
Welcome messages
Sponsor reads
Closing prayers or announcements
Add Background Music
Use the Add Background Music option to include music beneath your intro or outro sections.
Adjust Start and Stop Points
Trim the sermon audio to remove:
Pre-service silence
Setup chatter
Extended endings
Unwanted sections
Preview Your Podcast
Use the playback controls at the bottom of the editor to listen before exporting.
Export Your Podcast Episode
When you're ready:
Select Export in the upper-right corner.
Content Studio will generate your podcast audio file.
Download the exported audio for publishing to your preferred podcast platform.
Notes
Podcast generation may take several minutes depending on file size and processing demand.
You can export the sermon audio without making any edits.
Intro, outro, and music options are optional.
